Dustball...

So, I recently have been watching these guys, and their rally event updates on facebook, and honestly, I really want to enter my Ex in one of their events in the coming years.

Dustball Rally - Dustball Rally - The last of the REAL Road Rallies
https://www.facebook.com/dbrally/

Has anyone ever thought of road rallying their Ex? Seems like a rich mans game... That said, Michael, ever thought of giving one a try? Your Ex could be a show stopper at an event.

Here is a good write up about the Dustball events: http://goo.gl/Dgy5hG

Road rally, no. But I've really wanted to do rally cross with it!

So the Dustball appears to just be another Gumball or Bullrun from what I see... Don't see why not, especially with the fuel range of a well sorted diesel.

It is sort of like the other races, but the Dustball is a little more tame. While there are guys that like to show off their horse power, the events are more about the driving together, than burning the tires off and acting like donkeys...

Plus, while it is expensive, it is not cost prohibitive like the bluurun, cannonball or gumball races.
